A Poincare-invariant description of mesonic baryon resonance decays is presented following the point form of relativistic quantum mechanics. In this contribution we focus on pionic decay modes. It is found that the theoretical results in…
We investigate the hidden strange light baryon-meson system. With the resonating-group method, two bound states, $\eta'-N$ and $\phi-N$, are found in the quark delocalization color screening model. Focusing on the $\phi-N$ bound state…
In present work, we perform a coupled-channel analysis of $B^{(*)}_{(s)}\bar{B}^{(*)}_{(s)}$ systems with the one-boson-exchange potentials. We first study the $I(J^{PC})=1(1^{+-})$ $B\bar{B}^{*}/B^{*}\bar{B}^{*}$ system to describe the…
In this thesis two signals pointing beyond the Standard Model are discussed. The first signal is the presence of baryonic matter around us. The possibility of baryogenesis in the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM) was studied. The…
We have searched for the baryon-containing radiative penguin decays B^- -> \Lambda p-bar \gamma and B^- -> \Sigma^0 p-bar \gamma, using a sample of 9.7 million BBbar events collected at the \Upsilon(4S) with the CLEO detector. We find no…
BES data on $J/\psi \to \gamma (\pi^{+} \pi^{-} \pi^{+} \pi^{-})$ have been analyzed into partial waves. We fit with resonances having $J^{PC}=2^{++}$ at 1275 MeV, $0^{++}$ at 1500 MeV, $2^{++}$ at 1565 MeV, $0^{++}$ at 1740 MeV, $2^{++}$…
Accurate three-body quantal calculations of the system composed of a proton, an antiproton, and an electron are performed in perimetric coordinates with the Lagrange-mesh method, an approximate variational calculation with the simplicity of…
In the framework of the heavy baryon perturbation theory, in which the two-pion exchange is considered, the physical properties of heavy-baryon-anti-heavy-baryon systems are revisited. The potentials between heavy-baryon and…
We review the status as regards the existence of three- and four-body bound states made of neutrons and $\Lambda$ hyperons. For interesting cases, the coupling to neutral baryonic systems made of charged particles of different strangeness…
Preliminary results are presented on a search for several exclusive charmless hadronic B decays, from data collected by the BABAR detector near the Upsilon(4S) resonance. These include two-body decay modes h^{+/-}h^{-/+} three-body decay…
We study the threshold enhancement effects of baryon-anti-baryon systems in $J/\psi$ decays at BES using parity $P$, charge conjugation $C$, and flavor SU(3) symmetries. The $P$ and $C$ symmetries restrict the $p\bar p$ in $J/\psi \to…
The electromagnetic transitions between ($J^{P}={3/2}^{+}$) and ($J^{P}={1/2}^{+}$) baryons are important decay modes to observe new hadronic states experimentally. For the estimation of these transitions widths, we employ a…
A central issue in the theory of astrophysical compact objects and heavy ion reactions at intermediate and relativistic energies is the Nuclear Equation of State (EoS). On one hand, the large and expanding set of experimental and…
The baryon-antibaryon SU(3) nonets are proposed as a scheme to classify the increased number of experimentally observed enhancements near the baryon antibaryon mass threshold. The scheme is similar to the Fermi-Yang-Sakata model, which was…
The measurements of B_s mesons and b baryons advanced greatly in the past year. The ground state b baryon Xi_b^0 was observed for the first time; numerous decay modes of the B_s^0 and b baryons were newly seen; measurements of CP violation…
The $J/\psi$ meson has negative $G$-parity so that, in the limit of isospin conservation, its decay into $\pi^+\pi^-$ should be purely electromagnetic. However, the measured branching fraction $\mathcal{B}(J/\psi\to\pi^+\pi^-)$ exceeds by…
We suggest a new point of view according to which baryon resonances can be understood as collective excitations about intrinsic one-quark excitations in a mean field of definite symmetry. This approach is justified in the limit of large…
Recently the BES collaboration has announced observation of a resonant state in the $\pi^+\pi^- \eta'$ spectrum in $J/\psi \to \gamma \pi^+\pi^-\eta'$ decay. Fitting the data with a $0^{-+}$ state, the mass is determined to be 1833.7 MeV…
The existence of baryonium-bound or resonant states composed of a baryon and an antibaryon has long been postulated as a natural extension of conventional hadron spectroscopy. In the present work, we conduct a systematic investigation of…
In this work, we systematically study the OZI-allowed two-body strong decay properties of $1P$- and $1D$-wave $\Sigma_c$ baryons within the $j $-$j$ coupling scheme in the framework of the quark pair creation model. For a comparison, we…
